Forum Sigs Problem

[chaoswar4u]

How would you go about restricting the size a sig loads up as.

The lines I have

 

if($memb['forums_avatar']) { $av=""; } else { $av=""; }

if(!$memb['forums_signature']) { $memb['forums_signature']="No Signature"; } else { $memb['forums_signature']=$bbc->bbcode_parse($memb['forums_signature']); }

$r['fp_text']=$bbc->bbcode_parse($r['fp_text']);

As you can see ive done the avator but ive tried all sorts on the forum sig and get all sorts of errors. Anyone can give me a dig out on this. Many thx in advance.

Re: Forum Sigs Problem

Can't you do the width="blah" height="blah" in the img tag for the forum sig?

If that's not an option, try this:

 

<div style="overflow:hidden; width:500px; height:125px">
Forum sig goes here
</div>

 

doing that will put a div in for the forum sig that cannot stretch any bigger than the size you specify. It won't display any scroll bars either because you're doing overflow:hidden. If you did want scroll bars, use overflow:auto.

If you wanted the div to shrink down in size when people don't have sigs, you could put in a variable for the height, and if there is no sig, set the height to 1.

Re: Forum Sigs Problem

Below is what I finished with. Thx for the help.

 

$memb=$precache[$r['fp_poster_id']];

}

$rank=forums_rank($memb['posts']);

if($memb['forums_avatar']) { $av=""; } else { $av=""; }

if(!$memb['forums_signature']) { $memb['forums_signature']="No Signature"; } else { $memb['forums_signature']=$bbc->bbcode_parse($memb['forums_signature']); }

$r['fp_text']=$bbc->bbcode_parse($r['fp_text']);

print "<tr>

<th align='center'>Post #{$no}</th> <th align='center'>Subject: {$r['fp_subject']}

Posted at: $t $qlink$elink$dlink</th>

</tr>

<tr>

<td valign=top>{$r['fp_poster_name']} [{$r['fp_poster_id']}]

$av

Level: {$memb['level']}

<font color=blue>Forums Rank: {$rank}</font></td>

<td valign=top>{$r['fp_text']}

{$edittext}

-------------------

<div style='overflow:auto; width:500px; height:250px'>

{$memb['forums_signature']}</td>

</div>

</tr>";

}

Re: Forum Sigs Problem

Sweet, but I did notice a small syntactical HTML error.

 

<div style='overflow:auto; width:500px; height:250px'>
{$memb['forums_signature']}</td>
</div>

 

The </td> should come after the </div> instead of just before.

Lemme know how that works for ya.

Nothing changed that I could see but I changed it all the same.
